The Paradise Valley Ranger Station, located at 355 S. Main St., in Paradise Valley, Nevada, serves the Humboldt National Forest and was built in 1933. It was designed by the U.S. Forest Service architects and built by the Civilian Conservation Corps. It has also been known as the Paradise Valley Guard Station. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996. The listing included seven contributing buildings and one other contributing structure.[1]
It was deemed significant as a product of the National Forest Service's work with the Civilian Conservation Corps, a government jobs program of the Great Depression.[2]
The construction of the ranger station building started in 1934 by the Civilian Conservation Corps was halted for several years but the work was resumed and completed in 1941. Currently, the station is run by the United States Forest Service, Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, Santa Rosa Range District, Nevada, USA.[3]
